- Preheat an oven to 230 degrees C.
- Rub the butter with your finger tips into the flour and salt to form a breadcrumb type texture.
- Add enough milk into the flour to form a light dough then combine in the grated cheese.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured board and knead slightly. Cut out round scones. Sprinkle with more grated cheese if desired and paprika.
- Place on a floured tray and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
